Chance Sisco and Rio Ruiz spent baseball’s shutdown this spring living together with their families at Sisco’s Florida home.
Their work together paid off in a big way Wednesday for the Orioles in a 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, the team’s fourth straight win and another brick in the impressive season they’re putting together.
Sisco and Ruiz each had solo home runs to build and pad the Orioles’ late lead, with Sisco adding a two-run single early and Ruiz making a wonderous play at third base to end the eighth inning and keep that lead intact.
